I need some help from you more experienced folks in confirming the colors on my Coturnix quail.
1. I believe this one is a Tibetin.

2. Not sure if this is a Dilute/Fawn or Cinnamon.

3. This is supposed to be an Italian.

4. Playing with the Cot calculator it say if you mix a speckled gold (Italian?) with a Cinnamon you get a Gold Speckled Cinnamon. Is this one?

A couple of those look very familiar! I picked up 12 that I'm trying to figure out and I think they're mixed. Your top two pictures look like a few of mine that I suspect are a cross between the reds and a Tibetan . I wonder if the light ones aren't what can happen if you mix a traditional type with an A and M type.... trying to guess is half the fun.....still don't know what my dog is either! Good Luck!
 
I'm going to try to get pictures of mine today...it's an odd odd assortment! The cool thing is that each one is different...
 
I like having different colors too. I have many wild type as well. I like the unique ones but unfortunatly many are turning out to be males. I have only one Tibetin and its a boy so he will probably be culled.
 
So the good news is I finally got some photos.....the bad news is that I thought the bathroom would be a good place for a photo shoot...sigh...my supermodels had a great time pooping everywhere, took forever to clean...ah well....anyone up for another round of "what have I got?"...


 
That first one does look very similar to mine that I think is a Tibetin. No idea what the second ones are but they are lovely. That red and gold combo is beautiful. I believe the third ones are A&Ms. Forth would be a tuxedo but I don't know what the top color is.
 
The color on Artemis didn't photograph well....it's like an almost black base with a lace top red overlay...that one is a favorite! Do your Tibetan's have the little Hitler mustache? It didn't look like it. I seem to have several with a bit of white....that A and M blood coming through I guess.......
